EschCollection/DigitalVision via Getty Images Introduction In my view, NewtekOne looks cheap by its valuation, though this discount is justified, because the company's earnings quality is still strongly dependent on SBA loan sales, securitization valuations, credit quality, and secondary market liquidity. NewtekOne, Inc. ( NEWT ) operates as a technology-based bank holding company and has finished a three-year transformation from a business development company structure. The main business model is based on Newtek Bank, in which SBA 7(a) loan issuance is adjusted with the quickly growing deposit base, which in 2026 Q1 reached $1.86 billion. Also, the company is traded with a very low valuation at around 6.3x P/E. Even though in Q1 the EPS reached $0.43 and was consistent with the forecast, the market's valuation remains very conservative, where the P/B ratio is at 1.15x, and this shows a skeptical outlook on the company‘s long-term profitability and sustainability outside the SBA program. The net interest margin also faced pressure due to the rapid deposit growth, though net interest revenues grew 23.6% to $17.2 million. Dividend yield has stabilized at the 5.33% level with a $0.19 quarterly payment, which reflects a 33.5% payout ratio, which is much safer than historical BDC ratios. Operational costs grew 7.5%, though banks' efficiency ratio is reaching 40%, proving the advantage of the branchless model . Strategic dependence on non-interest revenues, which amounted to $53.7 million, and also APL loan securitization remain the main risk, because a 15.2% net income margin is sensitive to credit quality changes in the SBA portfolio, whose share of non-performing loans requires constant monitoring. Business Overview NewtekOne's business model in May was fully formed as a technology-based banking platform, whose main business operations are in Newtek Bank. The main revenue-generating source remains the SBA 7(a) loan issuance, where the annual forecast in 2026 remains $1...

There is no denying that we are in the midst of an artificial intelligence (AI) supercycle, a prolonged period of strong demand for products and/or services that outstrips supply. The AI supercycle has been in progress for the past three years, overwhelming the supply capacities of chipmakers and software providers. This explains why chipmakers and software companies are sitting on massive backlogs. The demand for AI products and services is so strong that there isn't enough infrastructure to meet it, which explains the huge shortage of memory chips . After all, memory is one of the most important cogs in the AI infrastructure ecosystem, enabling the transfer of large data volumes quickly so that AI data center chips can perform optimally without bottlenecks. This explains why AI data centers have been aggressively securing memory supply through long-term contracts. Continue reading

Richard Drury/DigitalVision via Getty Images Investment Overview The stock of Boston-based healthcare company Ironwood Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ( IRWD ) is down nearly 10% today, trading at $3.73 at the time of writing, after it was reported that its Chief Financial Officer Gregory Martini will resign effective May 15th. According to a filing dated 13th May (today): On May 8, 2026, Gregory Martini notified Ironwood Pharmaceuticals, Inc. that he is resigning from his position as Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, effective May 15, 2026.

herstockart/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images With the sharp recent surge in the S&P 500 to new heights, it's easy for investors to become disconnected from the fact that the underlying economy is potentially frail. To me, this is a time for caution and for investing in bargains (but selectively), not to go all-in on stocks, especially not the crowded semiconductor trade. Birkenstock ( BIRK ), the shoemaker, offers a clear signal that consumer spending is down as growth decelerates. The stock recently shed ~10% after reporting weak fiscal Q2 results, and unfortunately I fail to see a light at the end of the tunnel here. Data by YCharts I last wrote an article downgrading Birkenstock from a strong buy to a mere buy in February, when the stock was trading near $39 per share. In retrospect, I should have been even more cautious with the company. The latest Q2 data, showcasing weakening sales growth across geographies, an apparent pullback in B2B orders, and rising inventory, signals that Birkenstock may be in for troubled times ahead. I'm cutting my rating on the stock further to neutral. I continue to see both positives and risks for this company, but recent trends skew my opinion on Birkenstock more to the downside. That said, we should still appreciate several positive elements about this company: Despite its hundreds of years of existence and existing scale, Birkenstock still manages growth. It's true that growth is moderating amid a weaker macroeconomy, but we find it incredibly impressive that the company (founded in 1772 and at a ~€2.5 billion annual sales scale) is still managing to grow at a double-digit pace. The company is expanding its selection of closed-toe shoes while chasing a rapidly expanding market share in Asia. Increased capacity absorption: Several years ago, Birkenstock planned for success and expanded its manufacturing capacity, which drove a temporary hit to gross margins. Now, the company's increased sales scale is allowing the company to del...

onurdongel/iStock via Getty Images Units of Suburban Propane ( SPH ) have been a modest performer over the past year, gaining about 4% alongside paying a dividend. The cold winter has supported recent results, but long-term pressures remain. I last covered Suburban in November , rating the stock a “ S ell,” given slow secular growth and a large debt load. Since then, SPH has returned 10%, keeping pace with the market. With updated financials and a volatile macro environment for petroleum products, now is a good time to revisit SPH. Seeking Alpha In the partnership’s fiscal second quarter , Suburban Propane earned $2.06 per share, which beat estimates by $0.09 even as revenue declined 6% to $551 million. Earnings were down $0.04 from last year, given growth in its unit count. During Q2, PH generated $175 million of EBITDA, flat to last year. Through 6 months, EBITDA is up about $8 million to $259 million, as fiscal Q1 benefited from unusually cold weather, which led to a stronger start for the heating season than is the typical norm. It sold 161.6 retail propane gallons in Q2, which was flat to a year ago. Gross profit was essentially unchanged at $345 million. Heating demand varies year to year based on how cold the winter is. The eastern half of the nation, where Suburban has significant operations, experienced an unusually cold winter, whereas the West was a bit warmer. Some pockets of the Northeast had the coldest winter in several decades. This is an appositive for Suburban, which then needs to supply more propane to its customers. EIA In the East, temperatures were down 3% from last year, whereas they were 17% warmer in the West. This on balance created a favorable demand pattern for heating fuel. Given its slow growth, SPH is managing costs well. G&A spending was flat from last year at about $170 million, and interest expense declined by $1 million to $20 million. While propane demand faces secular decline, SPH is working to diversify its business with a renew...
